This is the master post for all my short stories.

It's a living document that I add to, of little writing challenges for myself, and who knows, maybe even improving my skill.

These are 600 character limit stories, so a set up and a pay off.

If all goes as planned, new video will be done with the rough cut tomorrow and up Saturday evening.

Please look forward to it. I'm giving you what I got.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas.

9. ABYSS X ZERO

This is the new game from the developers of UNSIGHTED, which if you've been following me for some time, you know I've had positively glowing things to say about it. This time around, instead of a top-down perspective, they're going full 3D Metroidvania! It looks spectacular.

Explore an expansive world in this 3D Metroidvania with carefully crafted dungeons and stylish combat. Take control of two different characters, fated to battle each other: Codename A and Codename Z, ...

Another strenuous year of not watching the game awards to do literally anything else with my evening. I am so brave and so strong.

Our demo just hit the Steam front page in the demo charts! This is unreal, thank you SO much for playing!

Queen’s Domain is a brutal, King’s Field inspired retro-action RPG. We'll post the demo link below if you want to try it

Just to have it on record, we had already been working on a 3D Metroidvania where you can use a motorcycle to travel quickly from one biome to another for… 3 or 4 years at this point? haha

(Hopefully we won't take as long as that other 3D Metroidvania with a bike... which I can't wait to play!)

NEW VIDEO: Big business is a death cult worshipping a many-faced Techno God. In an industry full of takers who want to eradicate the makers, so-called AI promises a nonsensical fantasy where games are made for free and sold to a world of laid off former workers. It is unhinged.

Sometimes I hate myself for the kind of gameplay ideas I have, coding this tumbling block physics with the screws was SOO hard

But I'm happy that the block puzzles are getting more varied and better integrated with the platforming, pacing and all

(game is ABYSS X ZERO, btw)

It's so funny how we all have a device with capabilities such as "Essentially Infinite Knowledge" and "More Art Than You can Ever Appreciate" but the people who make the device and its software only ever want us to use the "Brain Disintegrator 3000" and "Involuntary Mass Surveillance Node" functions

If you want to support the development of ABYSS X ZERO, consider wishlisting it on Steam! We're also working on bringing it to as many platforms as possible, and having a high wishlist count on Steam really helps!

Once scientists finish adding that 26th hour to the day, I'll finally get around to that essay about how Metal Gear Rising is the most prescient game about the inherent contradictions of fascism, the imperial boomerang and the inability for neoliberalism to resist it.

As Toni Morrison said, "the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work." But she also reminded us never to lose our capacity to be shocked.

I was talking about doing a New Year's getaway with some friends and my coworker asked if I wanted one of the girls present to pee on me.

Is this trauma? Do I have PTSD?

An honor to receive the endorsement of
of nearly a dozen Black clergy leaders in Crown Heights today, including Bishop Orlando Findlayter.

I’m grateful for their support, and this powerful and humbling prayer.

This morning I ran the NYC Gaza 5K in Prospect Park for the third time, alongside the Harlem Run Club, to raise money for @unrwausa.bsky.social, which delivers critical humanitarian aid and services to Palestinians in Gaza.

I hope you'll join me in donating: unrwausa.org
